DW Reports 'Strike' in Khan Younis, Omits US Funding the Bombs
Deutsche Welle's latest live update on the Middle East simply states, 'Israel launches strike in Gaza's Khan Younis.' Such detached terminology paints a picture of a sterile military operation, devoid of context or consequence. What this 'reporting' omits is the source of these 'strikes': the unwavering US military aid that funds Israel's arsenal, often through weapons that are then deployed
against a trapped civilian population. This same week, the US House voted 224-210 to pass HR 8369, providing an additional $26.4 billion in aid to Israel, despite mounting evidence of civilian casualties and human rights violations. Rep. Steny Hoyer, who received over $20,000 from AIPAC in 2022 , passionately defended the package, ensuring the 'strikes' can continue unabated. One might wonder, how
many news cycles will pass before the connection between congressional 'aid' and Khan Younis's rubble is finally made transparent?
